Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: After looking into this, I think Alexander is correct. There is no standard mapping between __file__ and __name__ and linecache is mistaken in assuming such a mapping exists for all importers (and is the same as the standard filesystem to name mapping to boot).
In this particular case, it was the differences between the way the two relate for a package vs a normal module that was confusing linecache, but for more exotic cases the filesystem based rules that linecache was attempting to enforce may be completely irrelevant. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4223> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
